1. I will help you if you edit your post so it's not in all-caps. I feel like you just sniffed some coke, drank a double-shot of espresso, and poured surgar down your throat and now you're yelling at me like a crack *****.

2. The maxima is a FWD car. Stagger is pointless, and counterproductive (unless you're going to stagger front)

3. For rims that width you will need an offset around 40, give or take.

i don't think they would fit. It all depends on what springs you are running. But 20's are big man. MY 19's rubbed when i hit a deep in the road with some people in the cars. But my car was also pretty low

I dont care what people said staggered wheel is hot, but if your looking for the ultimate handling, it's perhaps not the best choice. One thing you can do is buy 19 x 8.5 F/R and put 245-19-35 in front and 255-265-19-30 in the rear.

IMO only a few rims look good on a max, staggered is not one of them. Get a RWD for that

Yeah anything over 19" honestly looks absolutely horrible on a maxima. Why not just go with the 19's to avoid problems?

20" do look nice it depends on the owner I did tons of Maximas at my shop and also front wheel drive cars with 20" chrome rims on it. When you put 20" it for looks not for racing!! I have a max now with 20" and I building another on that will have 20" that i will bag and it will look sick!!!!! I hate to hear that 20" are garbage i hate to see Maximas with small 18" that make me say why waste your money on those small rims... But again that is my Taste. What ever floats the owners boat is what counts so ez on the 20" statments.

its debatable if 20s look good on SUVs or luxury cars. they have no place on a cheap sedan like a maxima. it looks like you are poor and cant afford a luxury car but wanna look like a "baller" with big wheels. weak

That's one thing I hate about this forum is all of the haters. If someone asks your opinion, feel free to share it but if they are just asking if something would fit, tell them yes or no and some facts. and leave it at that.

This is for SOONERFAN!!!

First of all SOONERFAN I know I have more money than you I have a total of five cars and yes I do have a SUV with 26" on it and I had about 11 maxima's were I come from bigger is better!!!! You may not like it but there are alot of other people here that do. Your car is not hot looking so you should not talk. My 93 Max looks alot better than yours and it is a 93 max!!!! I have awards with this car that I have won and I know your car can not come close to it. 2004 2nd place 4 door wild Hot import night Chicago!!! I owen a rim shop and I sell 20 and up all day long than 18" and lower I think I know more than you on looks on the car and rims I do this for a living!!! I am not cheap!!! i like you say I own a 2000 Maxima, 2001 Maxima AE, 2001 Nissan Quest, 62 Chevy Impala, and a 1999 GMC Denali with 26" I may added.... I been there and done that.. I hate when people like to talk but do not have nothing to back it up!!! So keep on with the only car you have and keep your low budget 18" rims on it. If you are racking 20" we know it is not for racing it for looks!!!! Looks is every thing that is one reason why you but rims on it...

you are proud of your hot import nights 2nd place? so you were the 2nd best ricer with a 4 door

i didnt start insulting you...i made a general comment.

my car isnt modded for looks so that doesnt hurt my feelings. all the exterior stuff is subtle and you wouldnt even notice it.

Good Boy, you are learning SOONERFAN our cars with 20" are not for racing... it for the looks. You may not have target me but the way you word it does. So watch what you type and all would be fine... As for the award yes it was 2nd place which is a great deal to people that attend these show because it is hard to win awards there. I just want to let you know that your comments we can do with out!!!!!!

20's look hot on the max if they are the right rims, ive seen 19's staggerd with some big drops.

But for 20's it will depend on your drop and how wide you go in the rear.

Good lord learn how to spell and

Also bigger does not mean better in Romeoville, It means you would rather have rimZ that cost more then your car.
